May 2021 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper
I hope you're having a great start to the month of May! A short + sweet newsletter today to share our wallpaper with you. I wanted to combine a lot of florals because our neighborhood is in full bloom and it's really inspiring (except for the pollen lol).

and that's quite an accomplishment.
I really wanted to focus this month's illustration on intentions. What are you seeking this month? Rest from the uncertainty of the world and the future? Peace for ourselves when everything seems so divided? Recognition of the real issues we're fighting to resolve? Or perhaps you're seeking Positivity as a way to move forward through this time. Maybe it's Resources to grow your passions so you can contribute to this world in a meaningful way. Maybe it's simply a moment to catch your breath. Whatever you're seeking this month, I hope that you read these words and take comfort in them... that the more we spend our energy on creating the new, the more quickly we'll see those changes in our lives. Take a moment today to say them out loud, and put them out into the Universe. She hears you :)

That said, the importance of resting and appreciating the simple joys of life has become a critical point of balance for many of us. I wanted to illustrate something that simply just made me happy, something that felt hopeful. Additionally, it was only fitting to focus on the color yellow this month: a color symbolizing awareness, education and new thought, mixed with optimism and hope for the future.
Thank you all so much again. I hope you have a wonderful month.

For August, I wanted something that captured the late sunny afternoons and waning days of summer, and I thought sunflowers would be perfect. I hope you like them!

It's My Birthday Month! August 2018
Happy August! This month is my birthday month, and I'll be turning 32 on August 8th! I wanted to create an extra-special desktop wallpaper for you this month, that captures the feeling of warm summer nights in the backyard - because that's how I've been spending the last few months. We've even seen some fireflies, which is one of my fav childhood memories.

July 2018 Illustrated Desktop Wallpaper
Happy July! After finally settling into our new home, I'm looking forward to enjoying the summer outdoors, and am resisting buying all of the cute inflatable pools for our backyard! I was inspired by this quote for the July Wallpaper, because I feel like it truly encapsulates that Summer Feeling. For this months' wallpaper, I worked on the lettering in ProCreate for iPad Pro :) and finished the colors in Photoshop. It's been fun to mix up my process a little!
